REGISTRATION ON FOR SPRING QUARTER. TP TOT JUL i-lJ Mi 11 m JLJI REGISTRATION ON FOR SPRING QUARTER. Vol. No. XXX. Chapel Hill, N. C, Friday, March 17, 1922.

Track Squad May Have Important More on Tennis Courts Than Ever Man Fails to Get Cup Over, But Pro- BASEBALL CANDIDATES WORK OUT EACH DAY ON EMERSON FIELD WITH FINE PROSPECTS FOR GREAT CLUB Man P. J. Ranson Says He May Leave College. NO HELL FIRE EVANGELIST Filling every seat and almost every available square foot of standing room, more than three thousand students, townspeople and visitors from points far and near poured into Memorial hall at the chapel period Monday morning to hear Dr. George Truitt, whose un usually successful meetings just con cluded in Raleigh have attracted state-wide attention. Dr. Truitt, a native of Clay coun ty, North Carolina, spoke of his early desire to come to the Uni versity and study law. Providence, he said, had thwarted that desire and directed his path in another di rection, but his interest in the Uni versity and his desire to visit it had been kept up for over forty years. If any came to hear Dr. Truitt expecting a sensational brand of "hell-fire and damnation" evange lism, they were doomed to d:sap pointment, for the most outstanding characteristic of his message was its quiet sincerity, backed up by a great reserve of vigorous energy. There was nothing theatrical, nothing spec tacular, on!' an intense earnestness that went straight to the hearts of the audience and commanded their utmost attentiveness. Dr. Truitt took as his text a verse from Philippians which he called the three-fold secret of St. Paul's suc cess: "This one thing I do, forget- thing those things which are behind, and reachnig forth unto those things which are before." "The first part of St. Paul's secret," said Dr. Truitt, "is concen tration. Every, man should have a certain work to do and should know how to do it. The business world today is intent upon securing this great essential. Mr. Edison and the Wright brothers illustrate the prin ciple in their own lives. It is of preeminent importance in the high est realm of e. the realism of re ligion. The tragedy of the Chris tian religion is that so many of us live it tepidly, in a half-hearted, luke-warm, vascillating manner. "The second part of St. Paul's secret is how to forget things we ought to forget. Memory is a won derful power, but it is also a won derful power to be able to forget the things that it would be harm ful for us to remember. First, we should forget our blunders and re gard them only as stepping stones to victory; we should ' forget our losses and not mourn over them; we should forget our injuries, because, if we go through life cherishing malices and grievances, our true per spective will be lost; we should for get our successes, save as we re member one achievement to spur us on and to incite us to higher achievement; finally, we should for- SQUAD TRAINING DAILY.

State meet which will be held April 1st in Raleigh. The non-arrival of the javelins which have been ordered for several weeks, has somewhat inconvenienced track men in this particular phase of the meet, but with men of so much experience as those of last year this should not effectually injure the team's chances. The track season thus far has been unusually successful, and ad vance reports tend to show that the team will continue on its vic torious path. The encounter with State in April with the exception of the South Atlantic meet, will probably be the hardest team that they will encounter. State has been showing up unusually well in run ning events, but the ability of Car olina's field men will more than counterbalance this. Ranson, P.

Worth Henderson, a member of the law school, acted as toastmaster, in the absence of "Scrubby" Rives, who is president of this club. Mr. Parks, coach of the Greens boro team, made a short talk, giving a number of reasons why Greensboro as successful this year, attributing the success to the determination and fight shown by each member of the team throughout the season.

He was the runner-up of Blakeney in the mile, and it is generaljy thought that he would have won if he had began his sprint earlier, since he passed team; Bretney Smith, of last year's varsity; Morris, winner of the state high school championship singles. The 16-inch trophy cup, given by the Durham Chamber of Commerce to the college winning the greatest number of points in the meet, was to have been sent over and formally presented at the same time. The man who was going to bring it was unable to come, however, and Pro fessor Graham, who was to have re ceived the cup for the University, concluded the program with a few words expressive of Carolina's grati tude ; to the people of Durham and the Various organizations of the town! for their enthusiastic support of the event, the first of its kind ever staged in the state. Before presenting the medals Mr. Lawrence called attention to the fact that Carolina won a place in every single event and walked away with both relay races. He declared that the recent meet is only the beginning of a bigger interest in track through out the South. As each man's name was called to come forward and receive his re ward,.

Students are expected, by the registrar to reg ister according to the schedule given below. Course cards, showing 'defi nitely the courses to be taken with sections accurately indicated, should be left with the professor who assists in arranging the courses. He will turn them into the registrar. Bills will be sent out by the Busi ness Office indicating dates when payment must be made. Failure to arrange promptly with the treasurer will necessitate the dropping of a stu dent's name from all class rolls. The complete schedule is as fol lows: Graduate School 14 Alumni, 2:30 (By R. S. Pickens.) In picking the all-state high school team this year the job has not been especially difficult. The writer wishes to acknowledge the assistance of Billy Carmichael and other mem bers of the Carolina varsity squad, who observed the teams in action here, and as members of the team, and expert exponents of the game, their opinions must bear heavily in the matter. First Team Britton, Greensboro, forward; Green, Durham, forward; Daniels, Greensboro, center; Vick ers, Durham, guard; B. Hackney, Durham, guard. Second Team Harvell, Charlotte, forward; Davis, Benson, forward; Branch, Asheville, center; Williams, Greensboro, guard; Henderson, Greensboro, guard. Britton, of Greensboro, the first forward picked on the all-state team takes his place as a result of play here at Chapel Hill. He is the life of the Greensboro outfit,- a crack shot, and a fast sure floorman and passer. He gets his place without question. Green, of Durham and Harvell, of Charlotte, both had excellent chances for the all state, but Green's size, his clever team and ability to work with other members of the team consistently, gave him first place. Harvell is undoubtedly one of the cleverest high school forwards seen this year, but his tendency to play individually, and his size puts him on the second team. Next year, with added growth and skill he should be one of the wonders of the high school teams of the state. Daniel, at center, is the only logi cal choice. He practically won the game from Durham on account of his immense size, and uncanny abil ity to shoot from almost impossible angles. He is the class of high school centers, although a littel slow and tires quickly 011 account of his Examinations Said to Prevent Daily Practice, and Men Are Getting Into Shape BATTERY MEN LOOK GOOD Shirley Back in Old Position, and Other Men on Infield Make Up Nice Machine.

The baseball varsity is working out daily on Emerson field in spite of examinations, and from all ap pearances are being rapidly whip ped into shape for the first game with Furman on March 1, just two weeks off. The battery men are looking ex ceptionally good. Wilson, Bryson, I Captain Llewellyn, and the others are working out daily with Mor ris and the other catchers, while the infield is getting in its first work out on the diamond. With Shirley on first, his old po sition, and Johnson on shortstop, McDonald not being out yet, the infield has been displaying dome snappy practice during the past few days, with hundreds of students poking on. Coach Fetzer says about as lit tle as usual about his prospects, but his general appearance would indi cate that he is more than pleased with the initial workouts of his crew. The coach is more at home on the baseball field than any where else, and is thoroughly enjoying the batting practice. Speaking of batting practice, it would not be amiss to remark that the whole team is simply polling the cover off the balj. Long hard hits to the outfield are the order of the day, and every man that steps up to the plate is hitting them hard and far. If the team hits in games like it is hitting now, the rest of the college clubs in the state might as well start getting ready to get beat.

Walk er returned to the "Hill" Monday from a conference of college presi dents, faculty representatives and members of the state department of education held in the O. Henry hotel at Greensboro. This is an organiza tion only one year old but it is do ing some very live work. Nineteen representatives from state colleges were present and several members from the state department of educa tion, including Dr. E. C. Brooks. The most important things discuss ed pertained to define just what an accredited college is. Several changes were recommended. Also scholar ships, entrance certificates, student government, and a means of educat ing the high school pupil as to the advantages a college course offers were taken up at great length. The defining of just what an ac credited college is took up most of the time, but finally the following conclusions were reached: (1) the completion of a four-year high school course should be required for college admission; (2) a college for gradu ation should require the completion of 120 semester hours; (3) the fac ulty should consist of eight heads of departments for every 100 students; (4) a college should not carry on a preparatory department in connec tion with the college organization. Student government was discussed at some length. Several presidents gave an account of the systems prac ticed in their institution, and others spoke against this system of govern ment. . Dr. 'Raymond Biford, president of Guilford college, is president of this conference, and H. W. Walker, of the University, is secretary. Two unusually interesting papers were presented at the regular bi weekly meeting of the North Caro lina club in Phillips Hall Monday night. The first of these was by L. G. Wilson on "The Landless and the Church," which was followed by a paper by J. O. Bailey on "Cooper ative Marketing." Mr. Wilson's paper called atten tion to a new problem and duty of the country church which has been almost entirely overlooked in the past. He showed how farm tenancy and illiteracy are threatening to de stroy the country church and that the country church must destroy these twin-born social evils or be de stroyed itself. Mr. Wilson used some North Carolina statistics to show that right here at home tenancy, illiter acy, and the city-ward drift are fast overcoming the rural church, and he urged education by the church and church consolidation as a measure to counteract the present trend and solve the problem. The discussion of Mr. Bailey show ed the great possibiities of cooper ative marketing in overcoming farm tenancy. Cooperative marketing is already a reality in this state, accord ing to'Mr. Bailey, and its success has already been proven. Under this plan he showed how farmers are pro tected from a flooded market, sudden drops in prices, speculators' prac tices, and the middleman's profit. In Denmark cooperative marketing has brought about a country of independ ent, satisfied farmers, and in this country the rapidly organizing move ment and the success of those al ready established show that the same can be done in this state and nation. Dr. Isaac Manning, dean of the School of Medicine, returned last week from Chicago where he was in the meeting of all deans of medical schools in the country. Dr. Manning while in Chicago was the guest at a number of social affairs as well as attending the meetings of the association. i it - ! i ' i I J; 1 1 . I1 V i4 1 n 5 u t Si' 't
